The Need for Crossing the Method Boundaries in Economics Research

Feminist Economics, 1997, vol. 3, issue 2, pages 121-125

Abstract: Feminist economists should make greater use of qualitative methods and enhance the complementarities between survey and qualitative methods. This will facilitate three outcomes of value for feminist economics: uncover and correct androcentric biases in survey-generated data/analyses; advance theory and empirical research on the processes that underlie economic outcomes; broaden the range of topics to include those on the margins of the discipline.
